Exhibition summary

This exhibition by Jorge Satorre presents an adaptation of his previous work in Dublin, reinterpreting themes of distance, memory, and spatial connection through sculpture and drawing. Located in the studio and hall of CarrerasMugica, the show blends technical experimentation with personal recollection.

Curatorial context

In 'Did I say I miss you? (Bilbao)', artist Jorge Satorre creates a dialogue between his past experiences in Dublin and his current practice in Bilbao. The exhibition is an adaptation of a project originally commissioned for Temple Bar Gallery + Studios, where the artist initially translated written descriptions of a hidden space into visual drawings as a way to navigate his emotional connection to the city. By re-imagining these works in Bilbao, Satorre shifts the focus toward the immediate, domestic, and local, using materials such as bramble branches gathered at Artxanda to construct a new sculptural narrative. Alongside the central sculpture, the exhibition includes a series of drawings and metal-and-concrete works titled 'Impulso que estás dentro, sal de mi cuerpo'. These pieces explore changes in scale and the observation of religious jewelry through a magnifying lens, reflecting on the artist's lifelong habit of wearing miniature representations. The exhibition serves as a technical and intimate investigation into how distance affects creative production, with the artist integrating vague memories and local collaborations into a cohesive display.
